Has Child Sex Trafficking Really Been Eliminated by Robert F. Kennedy at HHS?
In case you missed it last week, Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), Robert F. Kennedy Jr., announced at the White House that he had identified HHS as the "principle" cause of child sex trafficking in the U.S., and that he has now eliminated it. I have seen no published documentation by HHS to back up Secretary Kennedy's claims. Perhaps one of our readers who knows how to file Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests could send one to Mr. Kennedy at HHS and find out what the source of his claims are? Oh, but wait. Did Peggy Hall at The Healthy American just recently publish something about Mr. Kennedy eliminating all the FOIA offices at HHS? Unless Mr. Kennedy was referring to the Child Welfare Program funded by HHS, which includes Foster Care, Adoption and CPS (Child Police Services), I have no idea what, if anything, he actually eliminated. So I decided to do a search for cases here in 2025 where foster parents were arrested for sexually abusing and trafficking children. Hmmm.... Looks to me like child sex trafficking through HHS is alive and well here in 2025. Here are some recent reports I found, and while it is true that most if not all of these cases started before the Trump Administration, please note how most, if not all, of these foster homes funded by HHS where these horrors happened, ARE STILL OPERATING TODAY!!
